This and Dirt 3 are guaranteed purchases this year for me.
Below is a 12 minute gameplay video that has to be seen. It looks stunning. I'm really hoping it looks like this on PS3.

Highly recommend watching in fullscreen on 720p.

More info on Battlefield 3:

"Operation Métro" will be the multiplayer map available on the show floor at the LA Convention center at E3 next week and will highlight several new features in the multiplayer component: going prone; being able to temporarily disable vehicles (as opposed to just disabling them permanently the old-fashioned way with rockets); mountable weapons; "lay down suppressive fire and more." DICE is also adding a Team Deathmatch mode to the game

They said during the E3 announce that the above clip andy posted is 100% gameplay

I just hope that the PS3 version has comparable graphics. PCs always have the upper hand in that department.

I read that EA is calling this a Call of Duty Killer. Definitely getting this one. I have BF2 on the pc and my son still plays it every now and then.

Have you tried BF:Play4Free? I think it's out of Beta stage now and anyone can get it. If not it's definitely public beta. Fun game, like BF2 but with upgraded weapons.

No but I'll look into it. I never got comfortable with the controls for it on the pc. They can make a much better game on the PC I know but its just easier playing it on a console. My pc is going on 6 years old and its time to build a new one.

EA called Medal of Honor a Call of Duty killer... we know how that ended up.

This will be a great game for sure, but EA's promotional team swears everything is the best thin since sliced bread.

I just hope the game isnt to "epic" where you spend 3 minutes running to a battle to get shot and have to do it all over again like some of the maps in Battlefield can be.

Been playing the Uncharted 3 demo... very nice! has 3 person co-op which is a cool mode.

Good time to be a gamer for sure!

I am havin a shit ton of fun on BF1943. Play with Kory regularly and have even killed Japs with Andy and Ingramm. Its simple, fun, and only 9.99. Good to see Colt back in action!

It's just too bad gaming hours are different for a lot of us. I'm typically just logging off when you and Kory are hopping on. I'd love to play more BF1943, definitely a good fun game.

I wish they would have supported it with DLC. From what I remember, it was the fastest selling DLC content in the history of PSN. Why on earth did they not capitalize on more DLC packs is beyond me. 1943 and even Vietnam had great maps to play.

Are the mics still jacked up on that game?

I love Vietnam. And I'm not talking the DLC for BF:BC2. BF:Vietnam is what got me hooked on the BF series to begin with. I then went back and played 1942.

Me too! And I am not a PC gamer really, but BF: Vietnam was the pinnacle of the series. I loved all the maps and it was the first time they really introduced the landscaping as camouflage.

I traded in my copy of BFBC 2 and never even tried the vietnam DLC on that.

Go check out the free Beta of Uncharted... that is good fun as well.

Holy shiz with a Z. That was epic indeed. Sooooo, who are our pilots? If it is anything like the other BF's it wont be me. I use em strictly for transportation. Grab it, fly to objective, jump out. They are usually pretty difficult to fly. Man that looked sweet though. I mean REALLY effing sweet. Im gettin pumped for this game.

When I played BF2 on the PC my favorite thing was piloting. I was using a Saitek X52 flight stick which is totally badass. It has a separate base for the throttle and completely customizable. I'm sure with a little practice I'll get right back into it with the ps3 controller. I may even try using the Saitek on the ps3. Its usb and I'm sure I've read online where people are using it.
Anyways I have my pre-order in at gamestop so now all I'm waiting on now is October 25th.
Four games coming out over the course of 4 weeks. Arkham city on the 18th , BF3 on the 25th , Uncharted 3 on November 1st and MW3 on the 8th. Great time for gaming.

Battlefield 3 Beta starts September 29th

The Battlefield 3 multiplayer open beta will deploy on September 29 for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3. The beta map to be played ad nauseam is "Operation Metro." It pits two sides against each other in Rush Mode, where one team is tasked with destroying several sets of objectives, while the other defends.

Let's hope you preordered Medal of Honor Limited Edition last year. Apparently that's the only way to get in on a console.
